"Music may achieve the highest of all mission: she may be a bond between nations, races, and states, who are strangers in many ways; she may unite what is disunited and bring peace to what is hostile."

This album is like an exotic trip through the Arabian desert, and reminiscent of the glory days Led Zeppelin.
Jimmy Page and Robert Plant, former guitarist and singer for Led Zeppelin, respectively, take the listener on a journey with the use of foreign musicians and instruments including Egyptian bamboo flutes, mandolins, and bodhrans.

Much of the music on "No Quarter" has a Middle-Eastern feel to it. Page and Plant enlist the help of the London Metropolitan Orchestra and an Egyptian ensemble to create the magnificent and dreamy sound of Middle-Eastern music mixed with Western rock. The result is fabulous.

What I am most blown away with is how different many of the songs sound. Some, such as "Thank You" and "Gallows Pole," are basically the same as the Zeppelin classics. Many, however, sound as if they went in for plastic surgery. My favorite example is the first song on the album, "Nobody's Fault But Mine." I always thought the original Led Zeppelin version was alright, but when I heard Page and Plant's version, I was pleasantly surprised. It is slower,more beautiful, and, in my opinion, better than the original.
Jimmy Page and Robert Plant's "No Quarter" captures the mystery, power and life of music it self.
"No Quarter" is a breath of fresh air in a world of recycled music.

Music from different countries and ethnicities be dramatically different. Latin music, for example, is known for its use of variety of percussion instruments including congas, claves, timbales & hand drums. This music, often used for dances, lively, very rhythmic, and often dramatic. Mexican music, on other had, often includes mariachi band which consists of guitar, bass, violin & horns such as trumpets.

Simulakra came to life in 2013, drawing from the members' shared love for all sorts of world music and fusing it with psychedelic rock and jazz. They've performed in festivals such as Musiq Maudite - Berlin Moabit, Tagtráumer - Laucha an der Unstrut, 24 hours - Neukölln Berlin and more. The new EP is a sum of our cultural experiences in Berlin and europe.
